It seems to me that the idea of a personal God is an anthropomorphic concept which I cannot take seriously.
Spinoza's God is also not a person as we would understand it

As soon as this preliminary conclusion has been established, Spinoza immediately reveals the objective of his attack. His definition of God ” condemned since his excommunication from the Jewish community as a "God existing in only a philosophical sense" ” is meant to preclude any anthropomorphizing of the divine being
Because of the necessity inherent in Nature, there is no teleology in the universe. Nature does not act for any ends, and things do not exist for any set purposes. There are no "final causes" (to use the common Aristotelian phrase). God does not "do" things for the sake of anything else. The order of things just follows from God's essences with an inviolable determinism. All talk of God's purposes, intentions, goals, preferences or aims is just an anthropomorphizing fiction.
